The Best Ways to Approach Sports for Children with Autism

Cooperation

Cooperation between you, your child, the coaches, and other team members will be essential for a positive experience. It will be important for parents to communicate with the coaches about their child’s specific needs, strengths, and weakness, to ensure that everyone is on the same page. Making sure that this stays a positive experience is key. If certain activities or skills can be broken down into more manageable points, your child may feel more successful. Starting a new sport should not just be stressful. Parents and coaches alike want children to love and benefit from the sport. By working together, you can all make sure that this continues to be one of the main goals.
